Full user review

Runs mostly in the background and notifies successfully of the major of updates.

Cons

Does not scan for all updates.Also it fails to recognize updated software all the time. I've had the tracker say something needed to be updated, even though it was completely up to date. Also the smart install doesn't always work.
